He Became the Only Ally of the Abandoned Warrior

From the Beginning, This Was Meant to Be.

It had been decided ever since Lin had thrown himself into danger to save her.

The body he had saved with his own life wasn’t just hers—it was for him. The realization hit her now, painfully late.

"Lin is mine!"

The words she had shouted since the Epalter family.

No, it wasn’t that Lin was hers. Rather, she belonged to him.

Stupid girl, she had ignored something so obvious, so natural.

That was why, even after being torn limb from limb, she still hadn’t come to her senses.

[Let me emphasize once again. If you go in, you will not survive.]

"Lin didn’t weigh his chances when he saved me."

Lucy steeled herself.

"This is something only I can do. Something only I can do for Lin."

Abyss approached her, extending a hand.

It was a trembling hand, still reeling from the loss of Tiana.

"I’ll be with you. At this moment, I am your sword, Luciena."

Could the Demon Sword have known?

That as she tasted the regrets of others and dreamed only of revenge, she would ultimately face her own regret.

That the mocking smirk she wore, believing she held everything in her hands, would eventually turn back on her.

Without hesitation, Lucy grasped that hand.

"Ha, you trust me?"

"Even if you betray me, I’m only going to save Lin."@@novelbin@@

"Now that’s finally something worthy of a hero."

Abyss released her human form.

With a heavy heart, she transformed back into a massive greatsword, resting once again in Lucy’s hands.

"Lucy…."

Arsil, filled with shame and self-loathing, couldn’t bear to look Lucy in the eyes.
